Unhappy Wealthy Marquis Hides Treasures In Disorderly Enfield House
Police forced entry into an Enfield home and found an elderly woman unconscious at the foot of the stairs. A belt of gold coins, a bag of silver, and cheques plus certificates valued at a significant sum lay around the room. The recluse owner hoarded wealth, while the house showed chaos with banknotes near fireplaces and gold scattered about.
